The 1950 U.S. Census Project with Ancestry and FamilySearch

 

https://www.familysearch.org/getinvolved/1950

Over the past few years, Ancestry.com has developed a sophisticated program to use handwriting recognition to index the 1950 U. S. Federal Census. As soon as the 1950 Census was released, Ancestry made the digital images available on its website. Ancestry.com has made the images available to FamilySearch.org where volunteers are now involved in checking the accuracy of the handwriting recognition. The link above provides a way for you to volunteer to help check the recognized records. You can choose to review families, Review the document headers or to review names. 

Here is an example of one of the review names items.

There are tutorials and Frequently Asked Questions to help you get started.
